Ever wondered how many subscribers certain blogs have? There are many blogs out there that refuse to show off the number of subscribers they have and actually, many bloggers preach that you should never show your count until you hit at least 100. (I think that's BS personally...)
Well if someone is hiding their number and you are curious, you can head over to Feed Compare with the feed url of the blog you are interested in and it will give you exact numbers!
Pretty cool tool I'd say!
And the point of this tool is?
Simple. You may have a competitor in your niche not displaying their numbers and it's been driving you nuts to see what they've got going on. Well this is your tool to check and see if your blog compares in a positive or negative way.
This is a great tool to open your eyes as to your subscriber number strategy. Maybe you aren't promoting your subscribe buttons or services correctly. Or maybe you aren't promoting them at all. Use this tool to look at some blogs similar to yours and see which strategies they are using to gain more readers than you.

Nah, it doesn't work on my blog. It maybe because I did not activate show feedcount. I prefer using this http://feeds.feedburner.com/~fc/thesportsdollar/
Seems like some feeds are "protected" and this tool won't access their statistics.
A very useful find nevertheless, thx Sports Dollar! :)
